Bash, you do not sound like an idiot. English is a language cobbled together from the worst parts of several European languages with hidden rules and nonsense spelling. You aren't any more of an 'idiot' than I am, the only difference between us is that I had spelling and grammar caned into me when I was a boy, and I wouldn't have wished that on you or anyone else. I appreciate the offer, it is very kind of you, and I may very well at the least ask to talk over tea (and coffee). You needn't reply if you don't feel up to it, but please stay safe. And I hope that we find a way to return both of them to their regular selves.
